'Game old boy' Bernard Jordan on ferry to France
Ferry staff who met Bernard Jordan on his latest adventure to Normandy have described the veteran as a "game old boy".
"I knew he was a game old boy, he certainly has his wits about him," said employee Sonia Pittam.
"He didn't say much about the landings just how pleased he was to be on board and couldn't believe how everyone was looking after them."
"All the people waving on the route to the harbour entrance - he kept saying all this for us?"
